Dating Thread 50 .....

[TigsytheTiger]

celebrating half a century of dating chit chat, all welcome ...

Kirsty I'm avoiding! Its not the elegant post in which he called me a bitch though, its because he's 4 year younger then my mum

Just lost my message, in brief good morning all!

Your mum's 40 ?! sad, sad 46 year old face

Kin take heart

Yes shes 40. Had me when she was young. Had to block 18 year old.

No decent messages as yet. The good looking fella has disappeared too.

It's ok Juliette I just use ' my student thought I was late twenties, my student thought I was late twenties' as a mantra .

Any further communication from Telephone Man or Dutchish ?

SP, I reckon there are days and weeks in OD where all sane, attractive, non-cockish men are prevented from using computers to give the wankers a chance.

Right heres one for all you users of OKC...a very good looking guy from London (who I have absolutely no interest in) keeps checking my profile every time I log in over the last two days (so probs about 20 times in total)...it says on his profile he cant send the first message but can reply to subsequent ones. This seems suss to me...any ideas. Anyway now enjoying teasing him by checking out his profile but not messaging (reckon he is probably a big head trying to wear me down...or wants to sell me some kind of 'spiritual' message or somethin).

Either that..or he just cant believe how flawless and wrinkle free my skin is!! Hahahaha

Had a long live chat with Dutchish last night, actually forgot he was waiting online he's very lovely, a bit earnest and in Dutchland so that one would have to be speshul.

telephone man to left gsm message to ask if I could call back last night so we could arrange to meet. I said I'd call today. Hoping he's not a knob in RL

The core essence of OD, hope

And Man from Essex who I've been talking to wants to meet but I think I may have to suggest phone call as I know nothing about him. My double standards getting in nicely.

Ah, double standards are very much allowed, I think. Hope is what keeps you going, otherwise you're left with the stark reality of the illiterate and the cockshotters ( sweeeeeeeeeeping generalisation there )

Ike no ideas whatsoever on that one, I am an okc virgin but toying with the idea of setting up a profile, even if only for the craic.

I'm on OK and don't get many messages from sane people

Hey Jules...you have done very long distance relationships before havent you? So obvs you know the score on those!

SP you are getting some really awful messages. Is there any way you can limit the kind of person who's contacting you, or maybe hide your profile and just contact people you like the look of? I know you're kind of laughing it off, but you shouldn't have to put up with that sort of rubbish from internet randoms or anyone.

Juliette so have you got two lined up to meet now, or does EssexBoy still have to pass the interview process? The Sailing Dutchman sounds lovely, just a shame about the distance.

It's all about having hope, isn't it? It will happen, one day . . .

Hope's essential, somewhere there's a Mr R&R for each of us...

Have you fixed up any dates with your various blerks, OWW ?

( hello 48' hope everything's ok with your mum)

Obviously I suspect Bant, Voice and Bill would rather not have a Mr R&R

I always think of OD like that famous quote about 2nd marriages, the triumph of hope over experience...

My sleeping has gone all wrong again, was up til nearly 5am :( feeling tired and rather 'emoshe' as they say round here. Lack of response from c not helping as for the first time I am having a wobble that he might not reply. I know he will, but not at my most rational after 2 hours sleep :(

Ike that's bollocks, Okc let's you message anyone. But, if you've set it so that only people who write a couple of sentences can message you and you message them first then they can still reply. The settings are good, you can stop all sorts. Maybe he's thick.

LDR before yes, but they were in the med. a weekend in Dutchland flatlands is not quite the same.

Hello Velvet that sounds a bit shitty, sorry your insomnia has reappeared

OWW I've changed mail settings so no one under 21 can message me or those after sex.

I'm a firm fan of R&R but I'd like to put an order in for a Nameless, bit older

Nah, you see I reckon R&R is more me, Nameless is vair pretty though.
Ideally I'd have a Northern Irish Michael Palin circa 1978.

Hi my fellow threadetters!

Don't know quite what to do now re:OD, Lab is in the midst of aging parent issues, I've released my fwbs back into the general population

Although there is a very tasty chap on my back burner so to speak...

Oh and by the way Kin I am 46, February born....

(Missing Lab...)

Did I just say/write 'Missing Lab'? Get the crash crap out please, and bloody quick...
